The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Chu Xinghe and Yingzi were stunned when they saw Jiang Fan's expression in the dark. They looked at each other and suddenly felt a weird feeling. Could it be that this guy knew of their existence?

This is too f*cking horrible! What's wrong with this kid's brain?

Both of them were shocked. Chu Xinghe touched his nose, feeling embarrassed as if he had been caught.

"Um, Shadow, are we going to go say hello?"

Shadow heard this and rolled his eyes at Chu Xinghe and said, "If you are not afraid of embarrassment, then go ahead!"

After saying that, Shadow turned and left, leaving Chu He standing there in a daze for a moment, but soon he stood up and followed Shadow away.

Two thousand Zhenyuan troops also followed them. The army did not hide its whereabouts any more.

The brothers Chu Chengxiong and Chu Chengrui also discovered the army that appeared inexplicably not far away. There was a look of surprise in their eyes, and the White Robe Army immediately felt like they were facing a powerful enemy.

Jiang Fan waved his hands at Dai Yunzong and Yang Yexu and said, "They are our people, let them go... Let's pack up and leave now! To Huaining County. By the way, send the brothers to Menghu Gorge to check the situation first!"

Although the enemy was defeated, Jiang Fan still felt that it was better to be cautious. In order to avoid being at a disadvantage, once the Tiger Gorge was confirmed to be safe, the army could set out.

Upon hearing this, Dai Yunzong, Yang Yexu, and the Chu brothers looked at Jiang Fan in surprise. They didn't understand what Jiang Fan meant when he said those people were his own people.

When did I have other people on my side? Apart from Chu Yan'er, where else were there other people on my side?

However, Chu Chengrui was the first to react, with a strange look in his eyes. He knew who that person was! Compared to Chu Chengxiong, he was smarter.

Dai Yunzong and Yang Yexu did not ask any more questions. They resolutely carried out Jiang Fan's orders, sending people to pack their luggage and sending people to explore the way ahead.

In this way, Jiang Fan rushed to Huaining County under the cover of night.

On the other side, Zhu Xuanji, who managed to escape, led the remaining few hundred men under his command, found a fast horse hiding not far away, and rushed back to the capital in a day and a night.

The horses had all run to death, and they didn't dare to stop.

What happened in Huaining Prefecture was also sent to the capital by several groups of people via carrier pigeons within a few hours.

When the eldest prince Jiang Yi heard the news, he stood there in shock. Ye Ren and Huang Zhenren in front of him were also shocked.

Three thousand people went to kill Jiang Fan, but not only did they fail, but they were completely wiped out. Only a few people who were on guard outside survived. How is this possible!

To this end, he even sacrificed his private army commander Lu Ranfeng and his top strategist Kang Qian.

What's more, what he couldn't accept the most was that the woman he liked, Chu Yan'er, cooperated seamlessly with Jiang Fan to kill the people they sent.

The two of them had such a tacit understanding when they worked together for the first time, which made him feel jealous and hateful.

When he came to his senses, he opened his mouth and spurted out a stream of blood. Ye Ren and Huang Zhenren, who were standing by, saw this and hurried forward to support him.

Ye Ren comforted him, "Don't worry, eldest prince. Jiang Fan only won once. Don't forget Kang Qian's vicious plan. With so many people sent, how long can his disaster relief grain last? If there is no grain, let's see what he will do. It would be best if more people died. Then he will lose this disaster relief. "

Huang Zhenren also hurriedly said: "Yes, although we spent a lot of money this time and hired a lot of people, but as long as Jiang Fan is suppressed, it is worth it."

Upon hearing this, the eldest prince Jiang Yi felt much better. In order to deal with Jiang Fan, they dispatched nearly 10,000 people. However, each person agreed to give ten taels of silver, and he spent almost another 100,000 taels of silver.

But as long as Jiang Fan's disaster relief efforts can be stopped, the money will be worth spending.

"Moreover, the task of suppressing bandits that Jiang Fan has to complete is the most difficult. Don't forget that the two largest bandit groups in Huainan Prefecture are both in Huaining County. Those two bandit groups have the advantage of time and place, and are easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even if the imperial court dispatches an army of 100,000, it may not be able to take them down. How can Jiang Fan take them down!"

Ye Ren continued, Jiang Yi was even happier when he heard that. He was still thinking at that time, Jiang Fan didn't choose Huai'an Prefecture, but chose Huaining Prefecture where banditry was the most rampant. Isn't this just looking for excitement!

Thinking of this, he no longer felt so uncomfortable, but instead was full of anticipation.

As for the remaining princes, they were also stunned by the news. They were deeply afraid of Jiang Fan. If he joined forces with Chu Yan'er, Jiang Fan would become increasingly difficult to deal with.

Emperor Yan was stunned when he heard the news. But soon he couldn't help laughing. He almost wanted to laugh out loud.

The son he planned to love well turned out to be even better than he thought. He could never have imagined that the person he sent to protect was useless in the end.

When Chu Xinghe returned home and told his wife about this, his wife gave him a shy look.

She just said that her husband had done a good thing this time, and then the couple naturally began to study the important events in life.

Chu Xinghe never expected that he had stumbled upon a treasure by accident!

However, although Jiang Fan's performance this time shocked many people, no one was optimistic about Jiang Fan in this bet.

After all, this is not a war. Jiang Fan is very strategic, but he is probably not as good as Chu Yan'er in disaster management.

Of course, to be safe, several princes tried every possible way to sabotage this matter and must not let Chu Yan'er lose.

Otherwise, if Chu Yan'er and Jiang Fan were allowed to get together, Jiang Fan would definitely crush them and go straight to the throne, and they would no longer have a chance.

Therefore, people all over the capital were paying attention to Jiang Fan's bet.

All parties began to take action, and Ye Ren and other court officials who were affiliated with the princes used various means.

In order to embarrass Jiang Fan and bring disgrace upon the people, in addition to the notice boards that Emperor Yan had promised to set up throughout the capital, they also set up notice boards throughout the capital.

The notice board was equivalent to a public notice, which was a message from the court, and a private notice. Several princes and court officials jointly set up the notice board.

Because of the manpower and material resources required for this signboard, the several allied princes had to incur a lot of additional expenses.

But in order to embarrass Jiang Fan and discredit him among the people, they gritted their teeth and paid this little money.

The two lists would send pigeons to Beijing every day to report Jiang Fan and Chu Yan'er's disaster relief work in Huainan, and then make it public. The imperial court sent a special recorder, and the private list sent people to collect relevant information. They also sent pigeons to Beijing.

This model is like a public reporter and a private reporter. Although the capital is a few days away from Huainan, the speed of pigeon delivery is very fast. It can be delivered to the capital in a few hours.

Therefore, the progress of the disaster relief work of Jiang Fan and Chu Yan'er in Huainan Prefecture will be made known to the people of the entire capital at the first opportunity.

The people had not paid much attention to this bet at first, but because Jiang Fan defeated Chu Yan'er in the training ground last time, the people suddenly became interested in this useless Eighth Prince as rumored by the people.

Everyone also wanted to see whether the eighth prince could defeat Chu Yan'er, the most beautiful and extraordinary woman in the capital.

Therefore, during this period of time, the entire capital city began to talk about this matter, and the attention reached its peak.

Jiang Fan didn't know what was happening in the capital. Time went back to the first day he came to Huaining County. After a night of trekking, the large group of people safely crossed the Menghu Gorge.

When the large group of troops arrived at Huaining County, it was just daybreak. The soldiers guarding the city were almost scared to death when they saw the nearly a thousand people outside the city.
